Before you go out and buy another axle, there is a simple check that could be the real problem. The axle might have slipped and causing it not to track correct or maybe built wrong from the get go. First take the boat off the trailer, turn the trailer upside down and take the tires off. Take a tape and measure from the tip of the hitch to the front of each hub. It should be the same, just make sure that you measure the same way on both sides. It could be as simple as adjusting the springs a 1/4" be sure to check this before you go spend money because if the axle isn't bent buying and putting another on won't fix anything. Start with the basics first. To check if the trailer is bent you can level and measure to the floor at each corner. I don't think that it would be that because to would probally be noticable if the trailer was bent. Good luck.

started taking the trailer apart today got it jacked up and on stands and blocks, tires off. the right leaf spring has a broken leaf, and i had my dad follow me to see how it was tracking. he said it tracked fine, but that the tires are toed in. he said the driver side is worse. i also notice it looks like they are not square front to back. i am going to buy new leaf springs, hardware, axle, and tires, and put it together this weekend. should i beef up the springs and axle, or is that unnecessary? instead of that small axle i was maybe gonna go with a 2" and springs that hold another 250#s each.
alrighty, new axle and springs installed, new tires. went to a 2000# axle, and springs that are 935# springs. the guys at ta mahoneys set me right up. took me a little while by myself but i got it done and went for a test tow with dad following again. he said that the tires looked true and straight. gonna take it around the corner to lake thonotasassa tomorrow for a little test and check the tires after i get home from a little boating. hopefully i will be able to run down to cockroach bay, simmons park, and gandy, without having to get another set of tires lol.
Glad you got it fixed up. I just dropped mine off at a guys house to get the tongue rewelded
